JUST when we were starting to enjoy the warmer Spring-like weather it seems that Yorkshire will once again return to the grips of Winter this week.

Warm air from the tropical areas of the Atlantic arrived over the weekend providing temperatures as high as 15C in some parts of the county.

However, any hopes that an early Spring had already sprung will be frozen out by Thursday as colder air arrives, bringing with it some severe wintry showers and even some snow on higher ground.

Temperatures are likely to stay between 10C and 15C until Wednesday but the Met Office has warned there is a chance of heavy rain and strong winds.

Come Thursday, the weather will deteriorate even further.

The Met Office website says: "Heavy rain, strong winds and hill snow is possible Thursday morning, followed by wintry showers. It will be chilly on Friday."
